Customer Reviews:

fabulous jazz!.......2004-03-06

This album has all the ingredients that one might expect of a fabulous bluesy jazz recording. The music swings, weeps and laughs for you. Jessica and her band play together so well with Jay Thomas on tenor sax and trumpet, Jeff Johnson on bass and Mel Brown on drums. No-one has overtones: it is entirely harmonious. Jay's muted trumpet sounds like Miles Davis (on "Kind of Blue"), especially on number 6 "Blues for Bill", which is a tribute to Bill Evans. This nostalgic song is one of the best jazz songs I ever heard. Light your candles, pour yourself a glass of wine, crank up the volume, start with #6 and dream away!
